Keyboard shortcuts

The shortcuts sheet

A keyboard shortcut is a key, or a few keys pressed together, that does something without the mouse. Ctrl+ B, for example, makes text bold. They're handy but never required: anything a shortcut does, a button does too.

You don't have to memorize any of this. Press ? anywhere in cDox and the full list opens, grouped by where you are: the dashboard, pages, sheets. It shows the keys for your own keyboard.

In a sheet, typing goes straight into the selected box, so press Ctrl+ / instead to open the list.

Around the dashboard

On the dashboard (the list of your documents), the common actions are a single key. Don't worry: they do nothing while you're typing in a box, like search.

With a document selected in the list, these act on it:

Moving around the list with the arrow keys is covered in full in Folders and finding things.

Everywhere

These work anywhere in cDox. All of them except ? also work while you're typing.

In a page

If you know the shortcuts from Word or Google Docs, most of them work in a page too. Here's the list, plus a few that are cDox's own.

In a sheet

Sheets have their own set, with a whole page devoted to them: Sheet shortcuts. Here are the main ones.

Windows, Mac and Linux

Everywhere cDox shows a shortcut, it writes it for the computer you're on. On a Mac you'll see the Command key (⌘); on Windows and Linux it's the Control key (Ctrl) instead. The lists on this page follow the same rule.
